Buff the scout armor perk.

[Zephyr]

Seriously, the radar pings are useless. Can we swap it out with... I don't know, literally anything else that would be actually useful?

[sadchaos]

scout perk is amazing though?
Lets you easily find Pois without hassle it's a godsend when farming samples while doing evac personal missions

All the perks are bad afterthoughts.

you also get less detection range for making stealth a bit easier, particularly against bots. Kinda huge if you wanna go off and do objectives on your own

Not to mention radar pings are actually very useful for finding patrols while stealthing, and keeping an eye on my map while in a firefight has saved me countless times, because I can find enemies flanking me and avoid running into another group of enemies while retreating. Scout is fine, you just need to adjust your playstyle a bit more if you wanna notice any difference while using it

Literal skill issue. No cap

The scout pings are amazing. You can use it to spot for nearby enemies, when defending the extraction to give your team heads-up on where large groups might be coming from, and you can use it to scout the route ahead when traveling to avoid patrols.

The only ACTUAL problem with it, is that it doesn't automatically send the enemy info to your teammates so they automatically can tell what you're doing and what you're seeing. I would definitely like it to be buffed in at least that regard to make it more useful to the whole team.

Does scout armor pings not show to other players?

I'm usually wearing it so I thought it would also display on their radar as well. Thought they could see it so I'd often ping nearby stuff rather than directly on an objective.

The actual ping itself shows, but the enemy markers around it don't.

Ah okay, so I guess you have to bring the "radar ping" booster for others to see it?
